Shape sorters are fab! They keep youngster amused for ages – just putting all the shapes in…you taking them out…them putting everything back in…you taking them all out again and repeating ad infinitum.

The Vtech Sort and Soar Rocket shape sorter will reward your child with lights, sounds and fun phrases when they get things right and there are six teaching activities to help vary learning too.

It also has a blast-off feature which drops pieces out to start playing again once all shapes are inside, or when the button on the top of the rocket is pressed – no more parental taking out of shapes, HURRAH! (unless you like that, in which case, BOO!)

The Vtech Sort and Soar Rocket shape sorter is suitable for children aged 9 months, or over, and it needs 4AA batteries which aren't included.

There is also a hefty £4.95 delivery charge to pay; I'm not sure if you can pick up a Vtech Sort and Soar Rocket in-store for the same price, if you're passing it might be worth a look. Either way, even WITH the delivery charge added on, you're still paying pretty much half price compared to everywhere else.
